Permit Application Period: November 15 to December 1
Hunters can submit their applications for nonresident hound hunter permits online at GoOutdoorsIdaho.com. Log in or create an account, and then select the “Controlled Hunt/Big Game Applications” tile at the top of the home screen. Enter the desired Hunt Number (which can be below), and continue through the checkout process. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address saved to the account once the application has been submitted.
Once the drawing has completed, applicants will be notified of their draw status via email, if an email address is on file. Applicants can also view their application status by logging into their account at GoOutdoorsIdaho.com. Successful applicants can purchase their permit and required hunting license through their online customer account at GoOutdoorsIdaho.com, by phone at 1-800-554-8685, at any Idaho license vendor, or at any IDFG Regional Office.
Paper applications are available upon request. However, we recommend that all hunters apply using their GoOutdoorsIdaho.com customer account to get their drawing results as quickly as possible. Paper applications received at IDFG Headquarters after December 1st will not be accepted.
